"Happiness is the richest thing we will ever own." Donald Duck

     Let me start by stating how excited I am to be writing this blog!!! My husband, my dog, and boiled shrimp are in the top 4 things that make me truly happy in this world. The 4th thing, and not necessarily in this order, is seeing the happiness on my clients' faces! I truly can't explain the joy that it brings me. Today, I'm going to let you in on the happiness!
    I would like to introduce to you the Lowe family. Tyler, Jennifer, and Ian recently returned from a Disney cruise to Castaway Cay. They were supposed to make a stop in Nassau. However, due to Hurricane Irma, they returned to Port Canaveral early. As much as they and I wish they could have enjoyed their whole cruise, I am grateful that Disney considers the safety of their guests.

     So let me tell you a little bit about their ship. The Lowe's boarded the Disney Dream ship in Port Canaveral. The Disney Dream was the third ship added to the Disney fleet. It has 14 decks and holds 4,000 passengers. And just like any Disney related thing, it's pretty magical.

      If you have ever been fortunate enough to experience anything Disney, you'll know that the service is pretty amazing (like Chik-fil-a level amazing!). One of the first things that Jennifer told me about the cruise is that they "loved our waiters...and they followed us throughout the week." Talk about personalized service! And food-she had some good things to say about that, too.

      For many of us, we would be content with awesome service and good food. But Disney cruise ships offer tons of entertainment while on board. Some of the cool features that Disney ships offer are a live theater and a movie theater. The Lowes' watched two live shows and watched Cars 3 in the movie theater. Jennifer told me that they really enjoyed the shows. No movie theater would be complete without some popcorn, and Disney delivered.

    Disney cruise ships offer kids and adult only entertainment. One of the areas specifically for kids is Nemo's Reef. It's a 1,500 square foot venue that is also shaded from the sun, so the kiddos don't have to worry about getting sun burnt. Nemo's Reef is filled with characters from the famous Pixar movie. There's fountains, jet sprayers, and a mini-sized water slide. And don't worry, there's deck chairs for the parents to relax in. I think you can tell by the smile on Ian's face that Nemo's Reef is kid approved!

     There's 100's of things that I could say about Disney cruise ships and the Disney experience. I think that Jennifer said it best when she told me that Ian is "asking to go again." That little boy had a time he'll never forget, and I get to say I helped him have it. I truly love making my clients happy. And when one of them is an adorable little boy, it makes it even better!
